Yeah a mage can wand a boss or walk in front of c’thun’s door at any moment also. It’s the people not the abilities lol. The encounter doesn’t have to be in progress to grief, it’s a lot easier to grief with a hunter and just ninja pull things and then FD, you don’t even have to kill yourself.

x could happen so Y easily fixable thing that can do the same thing ahould stay!
Tell me youve got plans for using DI this way without telling me youve got plans for using DI this way.
This is why i expect HC to die fast. Everyone saw the nax grief and they all want their own 15 minutes of fame from trying to one up it.
If I wanted to be a griefer why I earth would I roll a paladin when I could just roll a hunter or rogue, get the same effect, and have a high chance of not suiciding my character. Heck, with a rogue I could ninja pull and use prep to vanish twice in case it gets resisted once.
You’re very dull bro.
lol by that logic we should remove BoP and a bunch of other things too 
it’s on you not to raid with a backstabbing troll.

There isnt any logic here. Leaving wide open avenues for griefing purely for the attention (because lets face it, thats why the Naxx grief happened and its why every single official HC grief that happens will happen) because other avenues of griefing exist isnt logical.
What you guys are doing is attempting to use a hyperbolic extreme and then arguing against that rather than the very real issue o pointed out.
Thats called a strawman.
But, hey. I wont be playing HC. Ive got the popcorn ready already for the Geddon bomb griefs. If you think there wont be any youre hilariously mistaken.
Magmadar dogs.
Geddon bombs.
Garr adds.
Vael bombs.
Phase 1 & 2 raiding is gonna be a slaughter. All because nobody wanted to plug the holes after the Naxx grief.
Nobody is gonna be appealing their way to Naxx in official but people will still make poor choices when inviting bodies to fill out their group/raid.

If you think that didnt set a precedent you are in for the rudest of awakenings.
That dude played a 2 year long con with those people and knifed them in the back for 10 minutes of fame and a small twitch subs bump.
LOL
That you believe this is hilarious.
“2 yr long con” what a cope.
You realize this is thoroughly documented right? Even the bald scurve did a video on it. Or are we just denying documented reality now.
But i mean im just pointing out the inevitable. Like i said, im not playing HC. So this wont hurt me at all.
The past behavior of the “griefer” in question was out there and known. That the raid team knew this, shrugged and YOLO’D it also knowing that appeals would give them all the do overs they wanted?
What a joke.
Cry more.

P much what I said, Arielba.
Oh but you too are sensitive about appeals?
Color me surprised.
They didn’t do it thinking they could get a “do over appeal” even if it happened. I reject that characterization
Oh, dang.
They’re still here?
Is Frosty around?
After his pronouncement of no hardcore realms was laughed at by Blizzard he’s gone dark again.

if paladins get DI (one) then shaman should get one ankh. Could also go as far as giving druids one battle res but I think that’s pushing it.
Shaman Ankh is inherently different than DI.
DI is a self sacrifice to keep another player alive and kills the caster outright.
Ankh is entirely a do-over from death. Death=Delete.
The scales do not balance, they are not equivalent abilities.

do hunters get revive pet or is the theme of being able to revive your pet after death remaining in hardcore to fit with class theme > hardcore rules?
They can still revive pet. its rather inconsistent.
I also always thought it would be fun to have a semi-hardcore game mode where you can be resurrected, but only by another player (no spirit healer or runback), and only for a limited time after death.
So that every class is intact with their full kit, but also death is real in many settings and the game is fully governed by player powers.
I’d go as far as giving classes with res a limited amount. Maybe items off certain raid bosses (kelthuzad) give things like phylactery’s which you can store a revive inside. DI is cool and unique because of the sacrificial aspect, sacrificing one of your three resurrections etc. still seems plausible. Is flask of petrification staying in HC?
I think arguing that ankh should have no use takes the ground of made up rules > ingame lore. I get that most people who play don’t care about the lore, they probably read guides before everything they do so its not about discovery as much as adhering to a made up ruleset.
